Don't mind me. Just trying to be politically correct here.
I can't think of an occasion on which I ate fresh mango before having it in this salsa. Dried? Yes, many times. Frozen? Of course. Pureed? Absolutely. Fresh? No, ma'am (or sir, as the case may be). I was positively thrilled by its intense burst of juicy flavor--'twas the perfect complement to the crisp cucumbers, spicy jalapenos, and powerful red onions accompanying it here. The presence of my favorite herb made the stuff even more refreshing. I had it as a side to some cheesy black bean quesadillas, but it would match so many things, from seafood (none for me, thanks) to grilled pork chops.

I don't mean to sound like a womaniac, but it's crazy good. Open your womandibles, put in a forkful, and womanducate!

I love mango salsa and yours sounds extra good Grace....sounds awesome with black beans; I've eaten it with chips too-yum!I could never come up with the words you do-you are just so talented and funny! :)

Adorable play on words. Thanks for stopping by my blog. It was fun hearing about how you had come close to plowing over a cow. It reminds me how when we dove down in the lower forty-eight with my kids for the first time my son went crazy every time we saw a cow. No biggie if it was a moose...but a cow--WOW!

About time you had a fresh mango! And who could resist the title of this post, haha! I had no idea what to expect upon opening it. Love the salsa-how perfect for enjoying with crispy chips and a cool drink when the weather gets warmer.
